Fed [463]3 years ago

8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 numbers be X and Y

X+Y=88

X-Y=60

______

2X. = 148. X=74

Put the value of X to find Y

74+Y=88

74-Y = 60 :. Y = 14

=>X=74

=>Y=14

on a lake, Carol rowed a boat for 1/8 mile. Then luke rowed the boat for 3/8 mile. how far did carol and like row in all? simpli

Semmy [17]

Answer:

$Total = \frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Carol = \frac{1}{8}$

$Luke = \frac{3}{8}$

Required

How far did they row together

To do this, we simply add the distance they both covered.

$Total = Carol + Luke$

This gives;

$Total = \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8}$

Take LCM

$Total = \frac{1+3}{8}$

$Total = \frac{4}{8}$

Simplify

$Total = \frac{1}{2}$

<em>Hence, they both rowed 1/2 mile</em>

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf \ \ \ x=-9 \ \ or \ \ x=2 \ \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

$2x^2+7x-14=x^2+4\\ 2x^2+7x-14-x^2-4=0\\ x^2+7x-18=0\\x^2-2x+9x-18=0\\ x(x-2)+9(x-2)=0\\ (x+9)(x-2)=0\\ x+9 = 0 \ \text{or} \ x-2=0\\ x = -9 \ \text{or} \ x=2$

hope this helps

Imagine that you need to compute e^0.4 but you have no calculator or other aid to enable you to compute it exactly, only paper a

labwork [276]

Answer:

0.0032

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to compute $e^{0.4}$ by the help of third-degree Taylor polynomial that is expanded around at x = 0.

Given :

$e^{0.4}$ < e < 3

Therefore, the Taylor's Error Bound formula is given by :

$|\text{Error}| \leq \frac{M}{(N+1)!} |x-a|^{N+1}$ , where $M=|F^{N+1}(x)|$

$\leq \frac{3}{(3+1)!} |-0.4|^4$

$\leq \frac{3}{24} \times (0.4)^4$

$\leq 0.0032$

Therefore, |Error| ≤ 0.0032
